Backup Endpoint

If this DLCI has an alternative endpoint to switch to in case this DLCI
becomes inactive, you would configure the endpoint index of this alternative
endpoint here.

For most applications, you will not need to set this parameter.

Values: 0–256
Default: 0

SLP Reference

Endpoint

This is the reference endpoint index to use for the Service Level Agreement
parameters. As most applications have the same SLAs for all DLCIs, they
need to be configured in only one DLCI entry. All SLA parameters can then
be copied from the endpoint index of this configured DLCI. If no SLP
reference endpoint is configured and the DLCI SLA parameters are not
configured, the values in the Frame Relay Service Details will be used
(default CIR, EB, enforcement).

Most applications do not need to set this parameter.

Values: 0–256
Default: 0

Remote IP Address

If this FSM unit is to be used to manage a remote FSM unit, the IP address of
the remote FSM unit must be configured here. This DLCI can be used for
management only, or for management and actual data.

If this parameter is set, a PC connected to the LAN interface of this FSM can
reach a remote FSM through this DLCI. The remote IP address must be part
of a different IP network from the local FSM, and the local FSM's IP address
must be configured into the PC. This way, local and remote FSMs can be
reached regardless of the availability of the routers connected at the back of
the FSMs.

Values: IP address
Default: 0.0.0.0

Remote IP Mask

If the Remote IP Address is set, the Remote IP Mask must also be set.

Values: IP address
Default: 0.0.0.0

Type

If data received from this DLCI has to be switched to its corresponding
destination port, the type must be set to “Switched.” The type should be set to
“Local” for any DLCI that is used for management purposes only.

Values: Switched, Local
Default: Switched

New DLCI

This field is used to create a new DLCI if it is not already configured. To
create a new DLCI, enter a valid DLCI number in the field and click the
“Submit” button. The new DLCI number will be reflected in the DLCI field
of the Endpoint Details screen.
